I haven’t been myself for the last couple of weeks and I just realized that the reason could be that this time last year H’s best friend died suddenly. I miss him. And I’m still processing my dad’s death last month.
I am walking the dogs, doing laundry and driving kids, and I cooked a square meal last night. I’ve also been on top of D’s medical and insurance stuff. But otherwise I’ve been a tired, unmotivated lump.
Seriously? You tell me at the end and sound annoyed but did not just tell me in the beginning?
What is with that? Good golly, grow a spine. Ridiculous. So now we leave and no-one feels good about it.
So glad I have learned to just speak up in the moment.
I am glad our apartment management tackled the problem very succesfully with Conservice! They dared to send bills to residents at freaking 1AM? ??? Kudos to our manager for fixing the bills.
I can’t believe that we have to sing this last minute POS on Christmas Eve. It sucks musically, lyrically, theologically, and I am embarrassed to perform it in front of my family, who actually possess musical taste.There’s tons of incredibly gorgeous Christmas music out there. You told me we’d do the Berlioz. Instead we have this new age christian crapola. We are not a “Praise Team.” This is wholly inappropriate. This is ruining the service for me.
Yesterday was the 5 year anniversary of the Sandy Hook shooting. 26 people were murdered at the elementary school, including 20 kindergarten children. My heart still breaks for their families yet my anger and frustration grows at our nation because 5 years later WE HAVE DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT. Where’s the outrage, folks?!
Really don’t like “sharing” during the holidays. Especially ON the holiday. Had wanted a nice, little Christmas with just our nice, little family. Hoping for snow and ice so we can’t get out to make the drive to the extended family gathering.
Oops, embarrassing that I forgot that D filed a 2016 tax return! I forgot that she did so in order to get a refund of her withheld taxes. And she didn’t keep a copy of her W2, either. I corrected the FAFSA form and had info transmitted directly from the IRS, so maybe that will be good enough. Sigh, I’m juggling too many balls…
Why say, “no offense” and then proceed to do so? You may offend as much as you like. Likewise, the listener is free to react accordingly. Don’t expect the target to be the adult and assume positive intent simply because you prefaced your hate with “no offense.” Act like a middle-school bully -> reap the consequences.
